GREEN BAY, WI – THIS is going to be fun. I’m calling it “The Ultimate Kombucha Taste Test Challenge!” And this week it’s all about Kevita Master Brew Kombucha Raspberry Lemon flavor.
This all started because my daughter Sage & her significant other, Trevor aka “The T-Man” eat healthy. They exercise and do most of the things you’re supposed to do to stay healthy. Me on the other, I can ALWAYS do more and try to eat “relatively healthy.”
For a long time Sage has been telling me about this great stuff, Kombucha. What is Kombucha? Well according to:
MERRIAM-WEBSTER: kombuchais “a gelatinous mass of symbiotic bacteria and yeasts grown to produce a fermented beverage held to confer health benefits.”
She loves it and I was interested in learning more about it. Then for the next two years I kept asking her for a list of her top beverages, so I could go to the store and start figuring out if this was for me or not. Fast forward two years and STILL no list.
For Christmas last year, I bought her and Trevor… “T-Man” a “Kombucha Home Brew Kit!” And yet still no list. Then this year, around Father’s Day I get a text from Sage asking me when I would be home on Sunday. I really didn’t think too much about it and told her I’d be home all day.
Sunday rolls around and there is a knock on my door and boom! It’s a delivery lady with a whole bunch of Kombucha! So I called up Sage and Trevor and we had a laugh and then Sage took me through all of the Kombucha I had, sharing her take on it.
It was a great call and I loved it… however as I was getting ready to hang up, Sage and Trevor made a pretty cool suggestion and that was for me to do a little taste test of each of the drinks and post it to YouTube and I thought that was a pretty cool idea! So in honor of them, that’s exactly what I’m doing.
Sage told me she normally drinks Kombucha either straight or over ice. So I decided I would do a taste test based on three things: Straight in a glass… Over ice… and then blended with ice. After tasting each one, I will give the flavor an overall score, the “UKTT” score and keep track of everything and just share the whole experience with you all. So here we go for week one!
| Date: | Maker: | Flavor | Score: |
| July 11, 2020 | Kevita | Raspberry Lemon | 7 |
To me, the best version was Kevita over ice. I think if you added rum or vodka it would be even better! There is no question this one had a vinegar smell to it as you drank it. There was suppose to be a raspberry/lemon flavor and I didn’t taste much of it at all, that’s why I ended up giving this one a “UKTT” score of 7.
So that’s my first review this week. We’ll start adding more every Wednesday until I get through all of the Kombucha Sage & Trevor… “T-Man” sent me.
Do YOU drink Kombucha? Have you had this brand and flavor? What would YOUR score be? Post your take in the comments below. I’d love to see what you think!
